Driving Lessons Arklow

Driving Lessons Arklow People Trust

At RSA School of Motoring we take a refreshingly different approach to driver training. As our student we want you to have fun during your lessons and stay safe when you drive. Striking this balance is what we are best at. All our instructors are pushed to stay on top of their game so they can deliver driving lessons that bridge the gap between theory and practice and turn our students into thoughtful, safe drivers. That means no stress and no yelling.

Here is why pupils call us the top driving school in Arklow

Years of experience has taught us that all students drive at different levels and have bad habits to fix. We don't waste time trying to make you a perfect driver. We fix areas of your driving need the most work so you progress fast and stay safe.

Retaining all the new information you're hit with when learning to drive is tough for any student. Which is why we have also developed a free email course, full of premium content and video tutorials to serve as a guide and to support throughout your essential driver training.

This supportive material is to help you progress faster and stay safe. Our extra bonus training will give you the head start all your EDT driving lessons, on road rules and on the driving test. This additional free training material is not offered by any other driving school in Arklow.

Driving test questions

Pop Quiz: Are you ready for the test

On your driving test, while doing your turnabout, must the manoeuvre be completed in three movements?

No it can be done in 3, 5 or 7 movements. The less the better. Most cars can do it in three depending on the size of the road and car.

About Arklow

Arklow is a town in County Wicklow on the east coast of Ireland. Founded by the Vikings in the ninth century, Arklow was the site of one of the bloodiest battles of the 1798 rebellion. Arklow reference

So here is a little information on our approach.

What exactly is Essential Driver Training?

EDT Driving Lessons Arklow

You may not know but many years ago Ireland had one of the worst road accident records in Europe. The Road Safety Authority had to do something so they designed a new training syllabus that all new drivers had to complete. The Essential Driver Training or EDT.

The EDT consists of 12 compulsory lessons that must be delivered by a RSA approved driving instructor to all learner drivers.

Learning to drive safely means understanding and exercising particular driving skills and these 12 EDT lessons have been intended to do just that.

What are chevrons?

They are directional arrows to indicate deviation ahead, bad bends etc. You must follow the arrows.

The Test: Crucial preparation

Pretest Driving Lessons Arklow

First you must master the rules of the road, the road signs and skills involved to control a car safely. And then there is learning to pass the driving test. The test is your chance to show that you are safe enough to drive unaccompanied. And naturally, as with any test, if you understand the conditions and what to expect you can pass easily.

If the thoughts of sitting the driving test are overwhelming you then you are not the first to feel like this. Fear of failing, fear of nerves getting the better of you or just fear of the unknown. Well fear not.

Most driving instructors will keep giving you lessons until they ‘think’ you are ready. Often they will send you to do the test not really knowing if you will pass or not. And they do this because they do not truly understand the driving test, how you will be graded or what areas of your driving will cause you to fail. Luckily this is not how we operate. All our instructors have been trained by ex-testers so they fully understand the driving tester and what they are looking for from you on test day.

We don’t like leaving things to chance. We simulate for you all 4 stages of the test, teach you all the test routes and focus on the areas of your driving that are most likely to get you the most marks or fail you.

Using this method we get our student past the test in half the time it takes other driving school. Passing fast means you save money.

Pop Quiz: Are you ready for the test

At a road junction where must you stop?

You must stop at or before the stop line.

A Driving School in Arklow you can rely on

We all remember the exciting engaging teacher at school that made learning easy and fun. And then we had the opposite, those teachers that had no place in the classroom. Not all teachers are made equal and that is certainly no less a fact with approved driving instructors. It is easy to Google 'Driving Lessons Arklow' and find driving instructors near you but which can you trust to best teach you.

Experience and professionalism is what you need from a driving school. A driving school that gets pupils to pass the driving test.
